Lyrics
Vos estabas cuando estaba todo bien
y no estabas cuando el rollo marginal, pinchó
en el gueto eras un príncipe inglés
de currante no vas a perder tu jamás
Vos estabas, cuando estaba todo bien.
Y no estabas, cuando el rollo marginal pinchó.
En el gueto eras un príncipe inglés.
De currante no vas a perder tu «savoir faire» jamás.
Vos estabas, esperando al marroquí
en Barajas, el colmo del síndrome Estocolmo.
Como aquella temporada cultural,
con rehenes, atados al piano rojo.
Vayamos pintados con sangre de los dos.
Siempre, Siempre (bis)
Nos esperan con balas de plata dulce,
fundidas de arreglos dentales nuestros.
Un hombre es un campo de batalla,
si no se calla es una revolución de claveles.
Vayamos pintados con sangre de los dos.
Siempre, Siempre (bis)
Entonces era la libertad,
a veces mataría por cinco minutos más.
Entonces era la libertad,
ahora me toca huir a mí, nene.
Vayamos pintados con sangre de los dos.
Siempre, Siempre.
Siempre
Lyrics translation
You were when everything was fine.
and you weren't when the marginal roll, it punctured
in the ghetto you were an English prince
of currante you will never lose you
You were, when everything was fine.
And you weren't there, when the marginal roll punctured.
In the ghetto you were an English prince.
From currante you will never lose your savoir faire.
You were, waiting for the Moroccan
in Barajas, the height of Stockholm Syndrome.
Like that cultural season,
with hostages, tied to the Red piano.
Let's go painted with blood from both of us.
Always, always (bis)
They're waiting for us with sweet silver bullets,
fused from our dental arrangements.
A man is a battlefield,
if you don't shut up, it's a Carnation Revolution.
Let's go painted with blood from both of us.
Always, always (bis)
Then it was freedom,
sometimes I'd kill for five more minutes.
Then it was freedom,
now it's my turn to run, baby.
Let's go painted with blood from both of us.
Always, Always.
Always
